The
development of armor used both in law enforcement and military
applications was created to be a reactive solution to changing threats
from criminals and combative nations. Armor is an ever evolving
experiment with costly variables. As armor has been improved the
technology has become reactive to the changes in ballistic threats (a
better bullet = better armor). To understand the nature of
VORTEC's
armor technology one must first understand the purpose behind the
research and development in our armor. Many of us in our armor division
have family and friends in law enforcement and in theater in Iraq. We
strive to provide the best technology in armor to bring our family and
friends back as well as yours. We stand behind every unit of armor sold
with the knowledge of testing and engineering that has been applied to
it.

VORTEC uses
only 100% Aramid fiber in all of our armor providing
the end user with trusted materials that have been proven
since the dawn of ballistic protection. |
|
Each new model
of hard and soft armor is put through months of
testing
before initial release for certification to a third party
lab. Once certification is achieved accelerated aging test
are conducted to ensure warranty periods. |
 |
All certification and testing is executed in
compliance with
National Institute of Justice standards
and Military
Specifications.
